I experience black screen when booting to Artix ISO, I found out the menu is loaded but not shown. So I can choose the option by guessing the position of selection.

my bet is this has something to do with customized graphical grub, UEFI and intel.

I'm not looking for solution, I want to know anyone else is experiencing the same thing?

latest ISO from weekly build: tested. Issue still present.
Code: [Select]
artix-base-runit-20231106-x86_64.iso

a workaround would be to use ventoy grub2 mode

on a Lenovo Thinkpad T14s AMD.

Can confirm: same issue with a MacbookPro6,2
Will try the proposed Ventoy hack and report back
EDIT: Ventoy worked using grub2
